Title: Sproatly Smith Post by: dog-nap (Ian) on June 13, 2015, 08:36:56 PM Has anyone heard any news about Sproatly Smith? I was just checking to see if they were playing at Leigh, but their facebook & twitter have not been touched since last year. Have they just faded away?
Title: Re: Sproatly Smith Post by: Andy on June 13, 2015, 10:04:20 PM You could try asking on their Facebook page?

Title: Re: Sproatly Smith Post by: JeremyRS on June 14, 2015, 10:52:04 AM I've booked them to play in Leicester (with Heed The Thunder) in November and have heard nothing to the contrary so I assume they're still a going concern.
Title: Re: Sproatly Smith Post by: Ian_ on June 14, 2015, 03:41:42 PM I do hope they're still going - one of the best new bands of the past ten years IMHO :) Title: Re: Sproatly Smith Post by: davidmjs on June 15, 2015, 09:33:47 AM "Facebook page hasn't been touched since last year" That's not true...there's updates on it from as recently as yesterday. Title: Re: Sproatly Smith Post by: Chris on June 15, 2015, 09:42:10 AM I was merely quoting the original post....
Title: Re: Sproatly Smith Post by: Andy Tuck on June 15, 2015, 08:13:52 PM "Facebook page hasn't been touched since last year" That's not true...there's updates on it from as recently as yesterday. He has two Fb pages both called Sproatly Smith. His personal one (have to be friends with him) is updated regularly. The band one (have to like page) has not been updated since last year. So both right, just looking at different pages. Title: Re: Sproatly Smith Post by: quodlibet (Ian) on June 15, 2015, 09:59:22 PM Bumped into Kate this evening & although HtT are up & doing & just returned from a tourette of the South West, SS is mainly on hiatus while Willoughby, the Sproatly sprog, is still so young. Ian is apparently working on some Weirdshire stuff, but I'm not sure what that is.
Fear not, they shall return. :) Title: Re: Sproatly Smith Post by: davidmjs on July 27, 2015, 01:57:36 PM Here's what that is :)

Especially like the mash up on "Bonny Bunch of Roses" I'd be interested to know what Louise Holmes might have made of it. :) Title: Re: Sproatly Smith Post by: davidmjs on October 21, 2017, 02:03:18 PM The new album is out. Wahay :)

I swear they were talking about this at least a year ago - I thought I'd dreamt it! ::) "Originally commisioned for the revival of the Hereford River Carnival in 2014.
